Newer houses, warehouses and rural buildings
Fletcher includes a mix: neat subdivisions, a few older farmhouses, barns and outbuildings, and warehouse and light industrial buildings near the highway. Each has a different kind of roof.
Subdivision homes tend to have architectural shingles on moderately pitched roofs. Older farmhouses may have metal over wood decking, or several layers of shingles. Warehouses often have large low-slope membrane roofs or metal panels with fasteners that loosen over time. Rural outbuildings add their own mix of materials. Treating each building type on its own terms is the foundation of good estimating.
